Tucked into the Lower Level of the Gwinnett Commerce Center in Duluth, Yibna Café is a new coffee shop that has taken social media by storm. If you haven’t seen it on your local feed, this is your sign to check out this hidden gem. With exceptional customer service, this coffee shop is arguably serving up some of the best sips around!
What makes Yibna Café a true hidden gem is its unique location in the Gwinnett Commerce Center! Once you park in the visitor lot (don’t worry, parking is free), you’ll head inside and press LL to go down a floor, bringing you just steps away from your next delicious latte or bite to eat. Yibna Café opened its doors in 2025 as a Mediterranean fusion café concept, offering a diverse food and drink menu. The shop itself is vibrant, with plenty of seating inside and outside to sit back and relax. There’s a welcoming ambiance where you instantly feel at home, which only adds to your café experience.
For this week’s Thirsty Thursday spotlight, we’re highlighting the Taffy Apple latte from their new seasonal fall menu. This delicious creation features apple, caramel and a cream top that comes with a drizzle of caramel and a pinch of salt. You can get it as a latte or matcha, with your choice of milk as well as hot or iced. We got it as an iced latte with almond milk, and let’s just say this drink is the essence of fall vibes. For coffee connoisseurs who prefer an apple flavor rather than pumpkin spice, you need to try this latte! Upon ordering, we were asked about our sweetness preference ( we like our coffee a little sweet), a special touch that ensures you get your drink according to your preference. The apple and caramel flavor pairs well with the espresso and the cream top was luscious.
If you’re looking for a seasonal sip to enjoy this autumn, head over to Yibna Café! There are plenty of cozy lattes and matcha waiting for you, along with tasty food items to pair together for the complete experience. Stay tuned for next week’s Foodie Friday spotlight!
